Full hypnosis download Speaking in groups
We already have a great hypnosis download for public presentation confidence, but this new ‘speaking in groups’ session for hypnosisdownloads.com is not actually about presentation skills or ‘giving talks’, it’s about just feeling comfortable expressing yourself in meetings and social groups. So many people feel relaxed enough when they are just one to one, but get them in a group and they clam up and feel unable to bear the ‘spotlight’ and say what they think.
It seems to be part of our biology that the more people are listening to us, and the more eyes there are upon us, the more social pressure we feel to perform well. In a work meeting, the pressure might be to say something appropriate and pertinent, in a social gathering, the pressure might be to say something witty or interesting, but, whatever the context, the extra attention that comes from a ‘group’ can make us feel anxious.
Which is frustrating, because of course so many people do have things to say and would love to enjoy their social and/or work lives more without feeling hampered by anxiety over being in a group.
This new session should help lots of people feel relaxed about confidently speaking in groups or choosing equally confidently to be quiet when it suits them.
All the best
